This one is going to be hard to discuss without getting into major spoilers. Hell, that statement IS a spoiler.
According to the box, this movie is about some friends who make up a story about a serial killer, which then comes true with them as the victims.
A "horror film" you can see with a date. No real gore, but has a decent scare level.
Not an instant classic, but not bad at all. The storyline is good enough to keep your interest, and may anger some by the ending, but those who pay attention will enjoy it.
Excellent direction, particularly the ability to get the correct facials and the use of shadows (VERY key to the story).
7 out of 10.

It was all right. The teen-high-school setting is a bit of a turnoff for me. Nothing worse than a self-important teenager.

This is in the queue as well. I'll get 'round to it eventually. I'm always skeptical of the "new horror" genre that seems prevalent nowadays.

Eh, can't even call it horror. Just a psycho/slasher flick. Nothing supernatural.

Some fine horror films don't involve the supernatural in any way whatsoever.

I just watched this again without even realizing I had watched it previously. Several scenes seemed familiar as I was watching though...

This movie is tricky to discuss without spoilers because even discussion of the genre could be a spoiler.
It's a fine film, but yeah, this isn't going to scare anyone's pants off.

I am looking at images from this flick and I would have bet money I had never seen it. Only my responses from 2007 said I did.

I remember it because of Danielle Harris and Bill Mosley.

I would do Danielle Harris although she ruined her body with tattoos.
Also, she's not in this film...is she?

Oh goddamnit. This should all be in the Blood Night thread. Just double fuck. No idea how those wires got crossed.

She was in that? I thought she might have been, but didn't bother to look.

Yeah. She's introduced fairly early.
